These no-bake bars are loaded with wholesome ingredients—oats, nuts, seeds, and a touch of sweetness—designed to keep you full and focused through all 18 holes (and the rest of your day). They’re easy to prep ahead, store well in the fridge, and are totally customizable based on what’s in your pantry.

• Balanced fuel – protein, fiber, and healthy fats in every bite.
• Great for golfers – throw one in your bag and snack between holes.
• Kid-friendly, too – even your mini golfers will love them!

Behind the Name:

We call them Fairway Fuel because they’re the ultimate grab-and-go snack—no cart required. These bars are all about clean energy that keeps your game (and your snack game) strong.

Bonus Tip:

Add dark chocolate chips for a sweet finish—or press them on top for a picture-perfect look!
